Summary

OTE: $160-180K

The client is seeking support to fill a sales leadership role for a newly developed SaaS platform focused on data and AI solutions for private equity firms. The product is a web-based, subscription (MRR) model with no current revenue but strong early interest and engagement, including inbound activity from major markets such as California, New York, Texas, and Europe. The platform leverages proprietary data and AI to deliver deep financial insights, M&A targeting, company benchmarking, and predictive analytics across approximately 13 million companies, with plans to scale further.

The ideal candidate will bring experience selling SaaS, data, or AI-driven solutions into PE firms, along with the ability to shape messaging, develop marketing materials, and help refine product-market fit.

  3. Strong awareness of investment workflows, diligence processes, research needs, and regulatory/compliance drivers.
